Ahhh Death
--
Lost in a sea not so tranquil
I am forever surrounded
Faces of the dammed floating in hell
And, I’m just one of them, eternally confounded
***
Searching for something to kill a forever pain
I struggle not to suffer and not to wallow
Yet the truth of it all drives me insane
choking me up until I can’t swallow
***
I try to push through and live out my days
Hoping to find meaning in it all
In a world so wonderous nobody ever stays
Just standing around until it’s my turn to fall
***
Welcome it, I would
The sweet and unjudged release
There are other ways, if only I could
I would welcome the escape and the peace
***
It’s not my destiny, it’s not my way
I wait patiently for your face
It’ll come in due time because I have no say
You’ll grant the release at your own pace
***
More will rise and more will fall
While you dillydally around
Perhaps one day I’ll get the call
That it’s I that you have finally found
***
Until then I wonder if you’re just not ready for me
And I hope that soon you’ll come thru
This world is becoming less pleasant to see
And for many of us, we are looking forward to meeting you.

I don’t know where you get your inspiration from but in this particular piece, I was inspired by the character of death from Supernatural. That relationship between him and Dean Winchester was always fun.
